Access control
As the charger range is intended for both residential and public applications, it has a number of
access control functionalities, such as NFC (“smart card”) authorization, mobile app
authorization, and full control by the OCPP server backend. Thus, a user can configure the
access to their charger(s) from basic unrestricted, to higher levels of control, based on their
application.
Rugged compact design
The charger is designed to have a small footprint and to be easily installed in various
locations, both indoors and outdoors. The charger series is available in multiple variants that
use the same enclosure, as a universal platform. Models are available as either socket- or
tethered-type, giving clients flexibility in customizing their EV charging experience.
Built with safety in mind
The charger series is designed with multiple safety interlocks in order to prevent the hazards
associated with high-current, high-power devices, such as electrical shocks, fires, and
equipment damage. The device monitors the state of the electrical network, and using a CT
clamp, can monitor total installation consumption. All models in the range have a built-in AC/DC
RCD, and will prevent leakage currents from causing damage to people and devices. The
chargers utilize both sound and light signaling to report their state and possible faults, enabling
quick and safe detection of problems. Socket-type charger chargers come with a standard
actuator locking mechanism, which prevents charging cable disconnection while powered,
effectively minimizing the risk of arcing and related damage. All chargers are equipped with a
tamper sensor, which can detect and report unauthorized opening of the charger body.
Additional security features are implemented at the software and firmware level in order to
safeguard the device from malicious code and external attacks.
Dynamic load management
Thanks to their OCPP compatibility, chargers can be configured in groups of 2 or more
chargers sharing the same electrical infrastructure. By monitoring their individual and total
consumption, the chargers can automatically balance the load they require from the mains
supply to provide optimal charging capacity without straining the electrical network. Dynamic
load management features are configurable and ideally suited for fleet and public applications.
